NMR spectral analysis of flavonoids from Chrysanthemum coronarium

Naringenin 5-O-glucoside, apigenin 7-O-glucoside, luteolin 7-O-glucoside, kaempferol 3-O-glucoside, quercetin 3-O-glucoside, apigenin, luteolin, kaempferol, and quercetin, nine flavonoid derivatives, were isolated for the first time from the aqueous methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Chrysanthemum coronarium. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic (UV, ¹H, ¹³C NMR) analyses. 1-and 2-dimensional NMR spectroscopy of the rare naringenin 5-O-glucoside have been recorded and assigned for the first time. The flavonoid glucosides from Chrysanthemum coronarium showed week activity against Poliovirus I and Adenovirus type 7.
